The Paper Shelter Peaceful Easter | Lil Patch of Crafty Friends | Copic Coloring

Posted on April 3, 2022April 10, 2022 by pixiedonna

The Paper Shelter Peaceful Easter

Happy Sunday, crafty friends! It’s hard to believe that it’s the beginning of April and time for a new challenge on the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge Blog. This month, team A is sponsored by The Paper Shelter. I am a huge fan of their gorgeous designs and for my project, I used The Peaceful Easter Digital Stamp.

I printed the image onto smooth white cardstock and created a mask by printing the image again onto a piece of copy paper. Once I had the mask in place, I ink blended the background using Squeezed Lemonade, Dried Marigold, and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Ink.

Copic Color Combinations

Skin: E000, E00, E21, E13, R20, R22
Hair: E18, E17, E15, E13, E11
Shirt: G24, G21, YG11
Pants: RV55, RV52, RV00
Bunny: C2, C1, C0, Blender
Tree: E47, E44, E43
Leaves/Vine: YG03, YG67
Pink: RV17, RV55, RV52, RV00
Teal: BG49, BG45, BG53, BG10
Grass: YG01, YG03, YG25, YG17

Once the ink blending was complete, I removed the mask and colored the image with Copic Markers. I used a stitched rectangular die to trim the panel and added the sentiment by heat embossing with white embossing powder. Then, I added the panel with foam adhesive to an A2-sized white top folding card base.

The Paper Shelter Enchanting Butterflies | Lil Patch of Crafty Friends | Design Team Project

Posted on April 4, 2021April 4, 2021 by pixiedonna

Happy Sunday crafty friends! Welcome to the new challenge on the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge Blog. We have a fabulous sponsor this month, I am using Enchanting Butterflies by The Paper Shelter for my design team project.

I love to create one-layer cards and this image was perfect to set in the center for exactly that. I printed the image onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 80lb cardstock and colored the main image with Copic Markers.

Copic Color Combination

Skin: 04, E13, E21, E00, E000, E0000, R20
Hair: RV06, RV04, RV02
Lips: RV66
Butterflies: Pink RV04, RV02, RV000, Teal BG05, BG01, BG000 Purple B66, B63 Yellow Y18, Y02
Shirt: C3, C1, C0, RV66
Flower: RV66, RV04
Background: YG11, YG20, Y000

I created the background by stamping out a scripty-background stamp onto a piece of Neenah Solar White Cardstock, then ink blended the background using Distress Oxide Ink in Kitch Flamingo. I just love this color by the way!

To complete this card, I stamped out the sentiment and heat embossed it before adhering the card panel to the pink background.

After the coloring was complete, I added the sentiment from a stamp set by Craftin Desert Diva and sparkle details to
mimic the background lights with a glitter pen.
